Hundreds of people have protest in Mainly Park Sydney, and
then they marched into in front of Toney abbot’s office and it organized by
refugee action coalition. The protest commences after unbelievable situation in
Manus island detention centre. After second night unrest in Manus Island
detention centre, one asylum seeker dead and 77 other were injured, that 16 of
them are in really bad condition.
The protestor in Manly Park have said, “ We come here today,
because we think it is difficult to put in word that what has gone down in
Manus Island in last few days. And it is difficult to put in word the comment
has made by Scoot Moron and Toney Abbot. They are covering up the reality of
happing in Manus Island. We are here to say, not in our name Toney Abbot. Not
in our name.” They said the asylum
seeker in Manus Island and Nauru know that we are gathering here today and it
gave them a great spring that they have not forgotten. They said, “ we are not
here, to close the Manus Island and Nauru, we are here to close down the
operation suborn border. We are here to close down Toney Abbot and Scot
Morrison’s war on Asylum seeker.”
Toney Abbot answered a
question about the situation in Manus Island and he said, “ The Australian
government will not be deterred or intimidated by anyone when it comes to doing
what we need to do to protect our borders,” the Prime Minister told reporters
in Sydney. “We will ensure these camps are run fairly, if necessary firmly, but
they will be fair.”
Protestor criticizes labour
party as will for doing nothing about happening in Manus Island. They said, “ Shame the policy, that
stand behind the Scot Morison and say nothing. Is that the best that the labour
can do? They sent Reza to PNG. Is that they can do? Say nothing on what Toney
Abbot’s government is doing? And they added, “ We are the opposition, not
Labour.”
Peter Alexander Cameron
Macdonald former MP for Manly was one of the speaker and he share personal
story that one of them was about time, while he has been in east of Iran
working as doctor, looking after the Hazara refugee from Afghanistan. He said,
“They (Hazara people) are not the people who need to be dehumanised, not people
should be stigmatised, not people should be demonized, they are the people who
we should care for. And it is the beginning, all the way trough the journey,
until they come here.” He add, “ This people I could speak with some Hazara
Afghan refugee, I went trough Pakistan and Iran in trouble journey with member
of a lost family. This people have suffered trouble overages. And what the
government is doing (Labour & liberal, I was never, let me make clear, I
was never be labour and liberal, I was always independent for many years) labour
and liberal had effectually characterised this people as illegal who have no
right. But this people has right.
The people who characterise this people as legal and illegal should go
to refugee camp in Pakistan and Iran, and see what is life.”
“ In the east of Iran, there
are hundreds and eighty thousands of Afghan refugees. they have no prospect.
Some of them can manage to get into Indonesia, cross the ocean and come here.” He also talked about Tampa boat, and
said, “Abbot is a person who has no heart, and this time is a very dark chapter
in Australian history. I am very sad and appal to admit that I am an Australian
citizen, by the way we are treating refugee.” He said, “ what should not is no
offshore processing, should be effected speedy process, as soon they arrive.
There is no reason it can happen in 1wo or three moths.” Then the protestors marched in front of
Toney Abbot’s office.
